The Loneliness of God

Before time, God , upon His throne knitted a magnificent plan upon Him. That is to form a world of love. A canvass where He could exhibit diverse hues of His affection. A display of His love.

Trees were made; various animals were created in a simple utter of His lips. But there, with His hands, out of mud, He created man. Perfectly formed and shaped.

When God loved man, man loved God too, but not that much when a sparkling fruit caught their eyes. In an intense motion, flowery words and tempting visions, man had fallen. The hide and seek game then started.

Have you ever loved someone who loves and is loved by another?
Is it an embarrassment to continue loving them despite their unfaithfulness?
Is it fair to love and not be loved?
How lonely is loving when the heart you love is frenzied by another?

Throughout the leaves of religious history, God pursued the hearts of an adulterous generation.
He manifested in details and powers, the sky trembled in awe of a thousand miracles. Waters were divided, food where poured like rain, rocks flooded with waters from within, fire where formed in clouds, series of plagues and wonders where displayed so magnificent that 3D motion pictures could not beat. At the end, they chose to love a gold fashioned idol, rather than worship a God who enabled them to taste liberty from stings and miseries.

Powers and might indeed couldn’t stir hearts.
It couldn't move them to love.

Would His manifestation make a difference when all of His wonders make us love them more than Him? Would His audible interaction make a difference when all of us tremble in fear and chose to live like controlled race, trying to meet every law, and at the end of the day, disappointed because of failure?
He understood that even if He communicates us in person, it wouldn’t lead us to Love Him more. And at the peak of a hill, He illustrated the grandest act of Love. With His nail-pierced hands, He opened His arms so wide for all who cares and also to those who doesn’t care, waiting and anticipating and hoping that one day they would love Him back again.

How lonely it is to love and not being loved in return?

( “The LORD said to me, "Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another and is an adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes."
So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and about a homer and a lethek of barley. Then I told her, "You are to live with me many days; you must not be a prostitute or be intimate with any man, and I will live with you."
For the Israelites will live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred stones, without ephod or idol. Afterward the Israelites will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They will come trembling to the LORD and to his blessings in the last days.’’ ) –Hosea 3


God RECLAIMED us….God loves us again despite of our unfaithfulness.
God REDEEMED us…..Indeed He bought us with a price.
God RENEWED us…… In Him, we can be purified and cleansed.
God RESTORED us…….And the day is near when we will be back to our First Love….GOD


God gave His all, but no one is willing to have it all.
God couldn’t be lonely. But I could just feel, how lonely it is pursuing someone, giving the whole thing, even your life, but at the end of the day, you are still not needed. How lonely could be God?


Do you feel His loneliness?
